After the angry eruption triggered by Carey's controversial stumping of Jonny Bairstow in the second Ashes Test, the pavilion arrangements have been tightened up. Three MCC members received bans, and the tourists will be given more space. The ropes that separate members and players in the Long Room have been pushed back, and stairwells where chants were heard are now off limits when players move.
Guy Lavender, the MCC chief executive, faced red faces at the club after the incident, and addressed the Long Room about the privileges of members. His unreserved apology to Cricket Australia followed, where he labeled the behavior of certain individuals as completely unacceptable, confirming an internal investigation. Lavender expressed his belief that such behaviors are unlikely to recur.
